This is how it seems important to us to use seismic inversion to characterize the nature of reservoir rocks. This work uses the different types of seismic inversion that are related to AVO analysis to perform lithological analysis of hydrocarbon reservoirs using 3D seismic data from Penobscot located in offshore Nova Scotia (Canada). These are elastic inversion, acoustic inversion, and inversion by attributes which constitute the methods used. The results allow good discrimination of different layers of hydrocarbon reservoirs using a combination of attributes. Thus, the cross-plotting of the density and the Poisson ratio made it possible to highlight four facies.enSeismic inversionReservoirCharacterizationLithologySeismic attributesBook
